Why I Am Still Alive?
My life has been a lattice work of rollercoasters. I have been through both the good and the bad.
I have died so many times from the discouragement and failures I have encountered. Yet, I am still alive. It may take more than only 500 words to express the experiences I had and those who regenerated me. However, my most influential contributor is pointed to you.
You may not have noticed or understood the impact you had on me and may never be able to for the actions you have taken are drenched with more than just the fundamental heroism and love, but I hope my efforts will bring a smile to your face.
I never had a moment in my life where I believed in the outcome you achieved, but you did it.
You brought my writing to light and unveiled the extraordinary quests and journeys of our

I had only just moved from a smaller town where much of the opportunities were not present, but you opened those doors and bestowed me the strongest people to help me through the toughest occurrences. You jump around the classroom, sing outdated songs, and forget like nobody else and though most students, teachers, and janitors who pass your classroom may see you as a maniac who had too much caffeine, your bounteous endearment for your scholars remains. Where some days I felt left out from the clothes and items others brought forth to society, you demonstrated how underneath the objects and cosmetics we layer ourselves with, we all bleed red. Where some days I had difficulties gaining friends, you indicated how we can, with an open mind, become closest with the most surprising people. Where some days I felt disheartened and intimidated, you presented to us Martin Luther King Jr., Michael Jordan, and Albert Einstein.
While many teachers and acquainted adults continue to notice nothing more than a child who

    Once you lay eyes upon this letter, I have far departed from Salem. My returning of avoiding the chaos I have stirred upon Salem is yet unknown. May it merely be days, weeks, months or years before reappearing, my unfathomable adoration towards you will reside in my lone heart eternally. I do not beseech for a letter in return, as my decision to conceal my dwelling place will remain as it is. Please do not endeavor to locate me, as this is very reason I headed off without a bid of farewell.…

    Good morning/afternoon teachers. I agree that the rewards of moving into the world are worth the travails. To me, Individuals who venture into new experiences may encounter obstacles, and in order for them to gain the rewards they seek, they must overcome and conquer these obstacles. This evident in J.C Burke’s The Story of Tom Brennan, a novel that is based on one family’s tragedy and how individuals grow when they are taken out of their comfort zones and venture into new worlds. Similarly, this is also seen in J.L Hancock’s film The Blind Side, a film based on a homeless and traumatised teenager who developed into an exceptional football player and well-educated student. This speech will show how the texts depict the themes of fear, friendship and the motif of darkness. I will show how they illustrate the benefits of moving into the world, are worth the struggles.…

    I walked on a thin layer of ice in high school; every time someone judged me, I could hear the ice slowly cracking under my feet. My life was in a fragile and brittle state during my junior year. I didn’t have the support of my parents, nor of my closest friends at this stage of my life. My own parents, teachers, and classmates had lost faith in me; to them it seemed as if I had ruined my life and that I would no longer succeed. On the contrary, I was determined to be successful because now I had someone special looking up at me as their role model.…

    To reach this ladder of success, I‘ve developed my own methods of survival through peace, love, and positivity. Unlike that homeless man who survives on his own, I persevere through helping others who lost their hope or are simply driven by the fear of working hard. On my free time, I motivate younger classmen with this message with the intention of leading them down a pathway unlike those who make up our despairing community. My change of perspective opened up many doors which allowed me to become a role model and a captain of my cross country team. Although my community has affected my academics and home situations profoundly, I now have the strive on bettering my future and experience on how it feels to fail but not give…

    I’d like to thank my friends and my academic adjudicators. Without any of you, I would not be where I am today. Thank you, because without your help, I would not have been given this chance to represent the class with a lengthy speech comprised of highly personal anecdotes, a chance I now plan to take full advantage of. Thank you teachers, for all that you have taught me - lessons that extended well beyond the four walls of a classroom, for providing me with myriad opportunities for all round development and values in life. Mere saying thanks is not enough. But our knowledge has expanded well out of the boundaries of the four walls Okay. I won’t make my speech way too lengthy because I know what a torture it is to stand right there and listen to all the blabber. So first let’s get done with the Thank yous.…

    Across the country, many young children’s receiving structured instructions at an early age, can be harm psychologically and/or physically.

    These past years have been eventful, exciting, and strange. I have formed new friendships, and left some behind as I’ve grown. I have been challenged in certain aspects of academics, and in social situations, but all of these have built me up into the person I am today. Although our class has made our fair share of mistakes and bad decisions, they do not define us, and I know we will continue…

    In answering Steve’s comment about the destiny of the unsaved certain definitions need to be dealt with along with reference made available to us and I have just what we need. Steve I understand what you have read and the comment was made from the standpoint of the author “Clark Pinnock.” However, if you will allow me to answer your questions in defining words such as; “Hades, Gehenna, Sheol, Eternal punishment, Annihilationism, Universalism, Hell and Apokatastasis. You also asked the difference between Hades and Sheol. Since we are dealing with Sotereology, Eschatology and Ecclesiology it is only fair that we reference the Word of God. Our definitions will come from Elwell Evangelical Dictionary of Theology and some citing from Towns, Theology for Today.…

    We’ve been through a lot, KEEP, Hiroshima, Izu, Showa Park... wait I wasn’t really there in all of that. I’ve actually only been here for a year, but coming to ASIJ was a life changing experience, and I feel like I have been here for pretty much my whole life. As this year went by, I already felt like you guys were a part of my family and even in this year, that seemed to fly right before my eyes, we all have been through a lot. Fun times, hard times, sad times, and even those dreadful days with too many tests. Even if this is the American School in Japan, all of us come from all over the world and that’s what makes us global, and I had realized as the year went by that what’s unique about our grade is each and every one of us is different, with our own personality, hobbies, and character. Remember, Bonus 30 SEL guys. I learnt that we all had a unique way of expressing ourselves, which taught me to…
